So morning run didn't happen. Turns out it is still dark out at 7 am. So I slept later then got up and went to work. Work today was boring. I was scanning stuff all day and didn't bring anything to occupy myself while the scanner does its thing and the Internet wasn't working on the computer so needless to say I drained the batteries on my iPhone. After work I came back and forced myself to run - glad that I did once I got out there. My least favorite part ab...

Pretty good day. Like the past few days, the weather has be gorgeous. Warm and sunny with a light fall wind. I am in London right? So my major accomplishment today was finishing ER. Now I can get back to my books and not be in such a weird mood. Before that I did go to class. We met today at the Saatchi Gallery in Sloane Square (a cute area to the west of Westminster Abbey/Palace area). This gallery was sort of strange. It was set up like a typical museum but ...

Exhausting day. I got up and did some stuff around the flat then made my way to Trafalgar Square for class.

They were all great. Then I went outside to St. Martin's in the fields to meet for class. We went to a variety of places throughout London along the Thames. We went to S...

Pretty great day. I slept in then had a slow start to the day. Then I got ready and walked down to Oxford Circus to meet Chao to go to Kew Gardens.

I took an insane amount of pictures so check out facebook in the next day or two. It was all really beautiful and t...

Lazy day today. I slept in for quite a bit, much needed. My task for the day: nothing. I baked some apple brownies (T's recipe) and sugar cookies. Both turned out great. Then Ellie and I went out to Vapiano for dinner. It was great, as always. We were so full. When we were about to leave Ellie's friend from UR (and one of my tutor from UR Potential) showed up. He is studying in Brussels this semester and was in London for the weekend for some sightseeing. I...
